Orthopaedics

Orthopaedist in Lisbon – Specialist in spine, knee, shoulder and functional rehabilitation

ORTHOPAEDICS CONSULTATION

Orthopaedics is a medical specialty that diagnoses, treats and prevents conditions and injuries affecting the musculoskeletal system. Whether caused by natural wear, trauma or congenital issues, orthopaedics focuses on restoring mobility and improving patients’ quality of life.

WHAT IS ORTHOPAEDICS FOR?

Orthopaedics helps in the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions, whether related to sports injuries, trauma, congenital or degenerative disorders. It also supports post-surgical rehabilitation and the prevention of future complications.

Conditions such as osteoarthritis, tendinitis, ligament injuries or joint wear can cause persistent pain or difficulty performing movements. The orthopaedist will assess, diagnose and propose a tailored treatment plan, including rehabilitation or surgery if needed.

If you've had a fall, accident or sports impact, you may be dealing with a fracture, sprain or dislocation. An orthopaedic consultation helps identify the type of injury, assess its severity and guide a safe and effective recovery.

Orthopaedics is recommended for lower back or neck pain, herniated discs, postural misalignments and spinal curvature disorders. The orthopaedist may suggest physiotherapy, postural correction, injections or surgery depending on the case.

OSTEOFISIO lab was recommended to me by a cousin at a time when I was desperate due to severe neck pain, which was already preventing me from living a normal life.

I realised that anything is possible as long as you’re with the right professionals. Thank you for everything!
